almost reached to her feet. glis-
tening necklace, evidently of silver
and gold, enriched her neck, and hanging
pendant from this were number OF
bears claws. Her black hair reached
below her waist. In her ears were large
hoop earrings of gold.
Upon seeing the form, one OF the
young men lnstinctively reached for his
rifle by his side, while the other started
in Amusement at seeing such a sight in
the dead of the night and thirty miles
from any house. When the figure saw
the motion made to reach the rife she
mOtioned for them not to fire and moved
down the trail, Reckoning to them. Be
fore disappearing from view she again
beckoned to them, but they were too
founded to fellow.
The next morning they followed the
trail, and after much difficulty traced the
footprints 30 the b Sc of g high cliff

The next morning we discussed the

took our blankets and went to
the base f the cliff. At about midnight,
the same hour the figure appeared to US,
we saw bright phcSphorescent light on
the brow Of the cliff, and [ am sure we
heard & voice calling 'Meeneeah. Meen-

that many, many years ago an Indian

starved to death near the place cal, d

wonder what he ever was made for. The
animal has habit of picking up old shoes
on the street and carrying them to his

Recently he came home, carrying in his

WOMEN OF THE HAREM.
A Brief Glimpse of the Peculiar Featu-. ,
the Orient.
From Gen. Lew wallace's Lecture

From Gen. Lew Wallace's Lecture.
One of the conditions upon which q
woman enters the harem is that she gives
up all family ties end connections with
the outside world. While polygamy is
permitted in Turkey, not more than 3
per cent. CT his majesty's Moslem sub
jects have harems Gen. Wallace de-
picted in humorous vein the curiosity Of
American women to visit the harems.
They always have a great desire to see
the poor creatures al home and devise
some means To raise them from their de-
graded condition. After visit many of
these ladies change their minds about the
fearful fate of the Turkish women. The
Turkish women assemble in a common
reception room richly furnished. They
are attended by a throng of slaves, white
and black, who do their every bidding.
The mistresses of these harems wear
costumes which the speaker, after
spologizing for his deficiency ON the SUBJ
iect of feminine apparel, undertook to
describe. Their clothing is of the rich
est material. OF the general Intelligence
Of these women their American sisters
who have seen them do not speak in fiat
tering terms. The conversation between
the Turkish women and their visitors
nearly always runs about this way:
"Where are you from?" inquire the
luxurious wives OF the MOhometans.
"FrOm America
"Wnere is America"
otis over the ocean"
"Do you ever go out f}ere without
wearing wells? Aren't you ashamed be-
fore the mem"
"We don't pay any attrution to the
men?n
f. It is the general opinion tl.15 ladies' of
the harem are prisoners. Tbs is merely
delusion. Every Turkish woman has
her own quarters and her own slave to
wait upon her. She can axe ride
whenever she wishes, and she wears
what she plesses without any int ference.
The Turkish headdress is, with lue defer
euce to the styles Of Paris md New
York, the most becoming Il any in
the world. 1t makes the HON lest wo
men handsome and the handsome angelic.
The Turkish women are, next 10 our own
American women, the most beautiful |
have ever seen. Glimpses OF them
can BE caught on Fridays, the Turkish
Sunday, or from their carriages. They
do their own shopping. 1t is theirs to
buy as they please and their husbands
to pay for it. 1t is incorrect 10 say that
there is no home-life among the
Turks. LAYING aside the tie of husband
and wife there remains that almost as
dear-parent and child. The residents
of the barem, which means sacred or
secret place, are passionately devoted to
their children, upon whom they can
shower all the tenderness of q womarfs
nature.
